Subject: proc: do translation + unlink atomically at remove_proc_entry()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e17a5765f20d1219c3f05eb17aab11671978e0ec;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

proc: do translation + unlink atomically at remove_proc_entry()

remove_proc_entry() does

	lock
	lookup parent
	unlock
	lock
	unlink proc entry from lists
	unlock

which can be made bit more correct by doing parent translation + unlink
without dropping lock.
